Stacy Peralta Gets a Burned Whopper

It turns out that Stacy Peralta is right bummed on that whole Burger King project. Check the quote from an interview just up on Fuel:

"Yeah, the Whopper thing. I got completely burned on that thing. It’s been an uncomfortable situation. I am a documentarian. I document things. I was hired to document that idea, not be in it. They used me to present it as if it was my film, my idea. So I took a lot of heat from that. I asked them to remove me from it and they wouldn’t do it, so I will never work for that ad agency again."

Yo, but he got paaaaaaid so he could make this good looking film on gangs in LA...Made in America.

About This Blog

My name is Nikki and I’m a life-long wearer of Vans.

In the interest of full disclosure, I work at Vans in the marketing department. I created this blog simply because there are so many cultural happenings surrounding Vans that I see everyday on the Web but nowhere to cull them all together. Basically, I look for people who use Vans (in some form) to express themselves or news following that same thread and aesthetic.

This isn’t the blog to ask me for a job, to hit me up for free kicks, or to tell me that you tore a hole in your jacket. Please don’t bother because this ain’t the “Ask Nikki Advice Column,” nor a replacement for the Vans Customer Service department, of which I have no part. And of course, thoughts and opinions expressed on this page are mine and mine alone, but I like it that way…
